ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce says he has no regrets about his actions in helping Plaxico Burress after his former teammate accidentally shot himself in the leg last November.
Speaking a day after a Manhattan grand jury decided not to indict him on charges of carrying Burress' unlicensed firearm in the aftermath of the shooting at a nightclub, Pierce said Tuesday he acted reasonably, responsibly and instinctively in helping Burress.
Pierce declined to discuss any details of the incident in a brief interview at the Giants training camp at the University at Albany.
The grand jury indicted Burress on two counts of criminal possession of a weapon and one count of reckless endangerment. He faces a minimum prison sentence of 3½ years if convicted.
